This one from Baselworld 2017 slipped under the radar.

Sky Dweller in steel (WG bezel) with white dial and red accents. My dealer sent the photo my way trying to reel me in, and you know what, they may succeed smile)) I saw plenty of promotional pics of the new steel blue dial Sky Dweller and a "Rolesor" Sky Dweller, but none of this one. I find it very appealing! 42mm × 14.1mm, 100m water resistance, 72 hour power reserve. Anyone seen it in person? Thanks. M4

I would be tempted, to tell you all, if only the bezel was not fluted.

Ok I know that the bezel has a functionality, on this watch. But couldn't Rolex design it in a less old fashioned way? Other than that, I a liking it a lot. Best, Nicolas

I agree with Nicolas, fluted bezels are not so much appealing to me as well, the only other point is a case a little bit too bulky (I believe its 42mm, with a consistent thickness) for such a watch, but these are only my humble opinions!!!

So if you like it in photo, my advice is try it first on the wrist and is the magic click happens, pull the trigger with no reserve, without latening to anyone, I'm sure it won't disappoint you In any case, enjoy the time you'll spend while deciding what ... 

I agree

This watch should be 40mm. 42 is way too big.

I agree with the earlier comments

that 40mm would be better and while I don't mind the fluted bezel i personally would prefer smooth (personal taste). However, I still think it is a great watch and worth at least trying on. When my dealer gets one I plan on giving it serious consideration... 

Great.

Hope you encounter the watch in person and can snap a few photos. M4

It is true, I read several articles on the new SkyD, but do not recall seeing this version.

The red is quite minimal, I like that. As you know, a certain Tudor I am lusting for treats red in the same manner. I can see this one working very well on the wrist. I have never owned a crinkle bezeled watch, so that detail holds interest for me. I gues... 

Tried all 3 steel

I tried on all three steel and the blue dial is by far the best ...
